MMSC73 New Adventure and Winging It

Wahoo - it is Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge time and we all love that what fabulous cards you have shared with us this week - I love seeing that you have done, you inspire me with each card I look at!

I have used this image from our weekly sponsor PaperWorks.Co. How cute is this - I had a lot of fun with her, stamping the image twice and colouring them with SU Chalks, cutting around the girl on the bike and popping her up on foam tape.

This next card is made using Priscilla's fabulous Dragonfly, you can see it here - I love colouring this image - over here, dragonflies are very 'in' at the moment! I have printed two copies of the image and coloured with SU Chalks, cutting out the wings from one image and popping them up on foam tape to add dimension.

These are cut out onto a Labels 4 Nestibilities and layered onto some embossed CS, using the D'vine Swirls embossing folder.

You can see the dimension in this photo, I have added pearls to the Nestibilitie and bling to the centre of the Dragonfly. The DP has been embossed using Stylised Flowers and Vintage Corners have been added to four corners. Two of the corners have had dragonfly brads added as a finishing touch.

and finally - this weeks sketch...it's "YOUR PICK" Make it fancy, clean and simple, or somewhere in-between.

Thank you so much for coming to visit and for the constant lovely comments you leave for me! I love seeing that you have been! We would love to see you play along this week at the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge and also at the Crafter's Digital Art Centre - where things are moving along at a great pace - it is so much fun - Priscilla has a Group there too - it is PARTY CENTRAL! LOL! God bless you!

Top notch, off the charts gorgeous! Every element of your cards are perfection, I just know how you manage to come up such awesome ideas week after week!! Inside and Out this is breath taking!! Blessings, Tracy

Fabulous cards again this week Linda! Both are so beautifully created with such lovely embellishments. Priscilla's dragonfly looks amazing in the deep green and the sweet little girl is just darling on her bike with her little kittie! Beautiful job Linda! Thanks for all your inspiration each week.Hugs, CharlotteXXX

Oh, both cards are just so wonderful, Linda!! The image on the first is adorable...love the paper piercing...I so wish I was better at that then I am...they always come out crooked!! Love what you have done with the PS dragonfly too...outstanding, my firend!!

What fabulous creations, Linda! Your dragonfly card is absolutely gorgeous and I just love the sweet girl on the bike. Your designs are phenomenal. Both images are colored beautifully and I just love the dimension you added to both cards by cutting out the images and popping them up with dimensionals. Beautiful work.

Hey Linda, Both of your cards are beautifully done. Both of them show off the digis perfectly. Your attention to detail is outstanding. I don't know how you do it but you turn out wonderful cards each and every week!Denise

That little girl is so adorable! You have colored her beautifully!! The popping up really brought her "to life" as did the popping up of the dragonfly wings! This is such a beautiful image and you have really nailed it perfectly! I watched the chalking tutorial, I want to give it a try, you get such fabulous results!! I will need to practice lots before being brave enough to post anything!Your work is always so refreshing and inspirational!!

Linda your cards are stunning. I love the little girl tooling around on here bicycle-that is just too darn cute-you have colored it beautifully. The dragonfly is so elegant and I love the sparkle on the wings. We are treated to double the pleasure, double the fun!!!!

Linda, sorry to be soooo late!! I've really gotten behind. I was finally able to upload my card yesterday. Whew!

What's this??? Only 2 cards instead of 3 this week. My, my, my Linda, it may be the chopping block for you this week. However, I will say you have redeemed yourself with these beauties. The first one is adorable and the second one using Priscilla's dragonfly is a knockout. You really do have such a beautiful and unique talent Linda - even for someone without royal such as myself!!

About Lovely Linda

I am a stay at home Mum who loves her family and loves to take care of them. I love baking and spending time with special people. I have many creative interests but card making has become a real passion for me and I have met so many beautiful people through making them. I feel that cards are something not be discarded but to be re-read when reflecting or when I feel the need to be picked up. They are a constant reminder of my friends and loved ones and those who care for me. They are a celebration of people and occasions in life. So my contribution to you is to make personalised cards where you can express and write the words of comfort and life in them to inspire, encourage or console. Maybe you would just simply like to express to a friend that they are appreciated. I look forward to meeting you!
God bless you, Linda
